The two most powerful entities in the history of combat sports, WWE and UFC came together under the umbrella of TKO Group Holdings last year and since then, the fans have been waiting for major crossovers to happen between them.
This week saw major glimpses of that crossover era, first beginning with the historic UFC 298 and Monday Night RAW being held at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California as a part of their billed invasion tour.
Furthermore, tonight’s edition of Monday Night RAW saw the appearance of renowned MMA Fighter Michael Chandler, who was seen enjoying the show sitting in the crowd.
However, as WWE ring announcer Samantha Irivin handed him a microphone, Chandler took the spotlight and issued a major challenge to former UFC champion Conor McGregor to step back inside the octagon and face him.
Moreover, the current WWE United States champion and former MMA competitor Logan Paul, after witnessing Michael Chandler’s appearance on RAW, took to his X and endorsed the start of this historic crossover between WWE and UFC.
“The UFC x WWE crossover has begun…TKO 📈.”
As mentioned, Logan Paul has some experience to his name in the physical world of Mixed Martial Arts. So it would interesting to see if he would step up to the octagon fighters once again as a part of the WWE roster and probably defend his title, should he remain champion.
